Year-to-Year Consistency of Top 10 RBs

[CC]

I was just looking around the net and found this article which I thought was pretty interesting and informative, some of the statistics might surprise you.

How Often Do Top 10 RBs Repeat?

Check it out.

nice find That'll help analyzing my top 10

So let's all take guesses at who will drop out of the top 10 this year... granted these will seem pretty bold since we are taking pretty much the consensus top 10 backs and saying that half of them won't be worth their picks.

My guesses from that article's 2003 top 10:
Holmes (but I'll still take him #1)
Green
Portis
Lewis
Taylor

And now let's guess who will replace them:
Henry
Dillon
D.Davis
Faulk
Griffin

Nice article

Fall out of top ten:
1) Fred Taylor - Toefield as 3rd down back, Jones on goaline = RBBC
2) Ricky Williams - Hanging with cheech & chong too much
3) Clinton Portis - Nagging injuries and no o-line downfield to spring the big 'uns like in Denver.
4) Edge - I just feel that Rhodes will see an increased role this season
5) Shaun Alexander - Holmgren goes back to Pack ways and feeds the TE in the redzone.

Replacements:
1) Julius Jones - Rookie in great situation
2) Quentin Griffin - 2nd year man wins the mess and produces
3) Rudi Johnson - Good riddance Dillon!
4) Kevin Barlow - Finally the man in SF
5) Corey Dillon - Welcome to NE Mr. Dillon!

You gotta be kidding... JUlius Jones is a rookie no one has even seen whta he can do let alone play the entire season. Quentin Griffin hasnt even won the starting jib and he wont. and theres no way all 5 of those guys above will fall out...

I wouldn't be at all surprised to see a Denver RB crack the top ten this year...the problem is, which one?
